Bradley Cooper’s NYC cheesesteak hotspot gets new landlord in $10.7M deal

nypost.com:

Bradley Cooper’s wildly popular cheesesteak takeout spot on the Lower East Side has a new landlord, The Post has learned.Alchemy Ventures, a real estate company that owns more than $400 million in mostly small properties in New York and Kansas City, gobbled up the five-story apartment building at 151 Avenue A for $10.75 million, reps for the company revealed.The green-painted building houses Danny & Coop’s, which the A-lister opened in December – and where he’s been spotted working the grill to sling cheesesteaks to adoring fans.

The change of landlords won’t likely imperil the Philadelphia-style phenomenon because Cooper and co-owner Danny DiGiampietro, who runs a celebrated pizza and sandwich spot called Angelo’s in the City of Brother Love, have a five-year lease with a five-year extension option.A source said Alchemy’s principals were “thrilled” to have the “Silver Linings Playbook” star as a tenant.Neither Cooper nor DiGiampietro could be reached.Danny & Coop’s is the latest addition to the thriving, sometimes funky Avenue A eating scene.

It’s drawn lines on the sidewalk for its $17.45 cheesesteak sandwich (the only thing they sell except for soda and water) since it posted on Instagram late last year.

Customers have waited up to 30 minutes to enter the stark-looking space, which has no chairs, and an additional 15 minutes to place their order and receive their grub.
